What I really don’t understand is why this discussion is hg v. GitHub, when it should be hg v. git. Particular hosting is a secondary issue and it could be GitHub or git.python.org (with some FLOSS git hosting package ... cgit/gitolite, gitorious, gitlab, etc.) or python.gitorious.org (I believe Gitorious people might be happy to host you) or whatever else.
